+
 ## 0.5.0 (2026-06-10)
 
 ## 0.4.0 (2026-05-27)
 
 ### Enhancements
 
--   `get_component_details` now optionally accepts an array of component names so multiple components can be fetched in a single call. ([#78185](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78185))
--   The server now provides instructions on how AI agents should be expected to use it, improving discoverability and tool call efficiency. ([#78186](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/78186))
